But I am asked to do it in a modular way i.e when I insert my module then it shud schedule in RR fashion and when I remove my module then it has to revert back to the elevator algorithm.... So I think this is the only way I can do this.. thanks, raghu On Fri, 22 Nov 2002, Seth Arnold wrote: > On Fri, Nov 22, 2002 at 09:20:05PM -0500, Raghu R.
